DS3 is 18 weeks. He's exclusively bf. He goes to bed at 7.15 ish, and has been waking only once a night (anywhere between 3.30 and 5am) for a quick feed then back to sleep for a couple of hours. This has been making me very happy!
But the wakings have been getting earlier - 2 nights ago it was 2.30, and last night 11.30 then 4.30.
Any thoughts please? I'm guessing he's getting hungrier and I need to try and feed more in the day but he's also found his thumb which while utterly adorable and very useful in terms of getting him to sleep, I do wonder if it means he's not feeding as much as he was.
Have just read that back and I'm not really sure what I'm asking - maybe for success stories of other bf babies who have done this and quickly gone back to less wakings. Or suggestions of how to get him to feed more in the day. Thanks!
